The article we're referring to talked about a 10 meter range system, for

better characterized as "wireless USB."

You've got a major disconnect here in throughput. Yes, the WirelessHD technology can handle uncompressed video at HD pixel rates. HDMI and UBW could only carry compressed video, requiring a decoder in the display.
